I was able to purchase 3 very scarce Baltimore area milk bottles for a good price. The first is a local Catonsville bottle that I have been trying to find for quite some time. I had almost all the different bottles put out by the Hilton Farm Dairy besides this little 1/4 pint. This is a very tough one to find.

Here is a scarce Oak Grove Farm Dairy half pint. The Baltimore Bottle Book only lists this dairy having pints and quarts and this is the only half pint I have ever seen. A very nice one to get.

Here it is next to an Oak Grove pint that I bought a few years ago. The embossing is different however.

And here is the rarest one out of the 3. It is a Meadowbrook Farms Dairy Cottage Cheese jar. I showed a couple of the top Maryland milk bottle collectors and none of them have ever seen this one before. This one is certainly a very hard to find bottle.

What a great set of additions to your collection. It's always good to get the hard to find ones. Nice!

Thanks for looking guys, it is always great to add to the collection. Jim, I have maybe 1/3 of all the known steamers including different variants and everything. Not to mention that many of them were made in both a blob top and Baltimore loop seal.
